Add a 28-oz can of crushed tomatoes, 0.5 cup water (or more if you like it less chunky), 1 can garbanzo beans, 1 can kidney beans, 1 can black beans (all beans rinsed). Bring to boil and then reduce to simmer for about 15-20 min.

Throw everything into a 5-quart crockpot (fill it up to 3/4 full with the water). Cook on high for about 6-7 hours or Low for about 10 hours. Remove the bay leaves. The celery and lentils should be soft. Takes 15 minutes to prepare, makes 19-20 cups. I serve this with brown rice or noodles for my husband, and he sprinkles on shredded parmesan too.
